I am not sure what is the best thing if this was proposed as a
non-developer option but it seems to me that having a single parameter
for publisher/subscriber, in this case, can serve our need for
testing/debugging. BTW, even though it is not a very good example but
we use max_replication_slots for different purposes on the publisher
(the limit for slots) and subscriber (the limit for origins).
